Cealan gestured at the mucky water aside the path. “this, is build to the harbour of keep Reekie, but muir an mui-more people settled ‘ere.” he explained. he didn't know everything himself either, but he could share what he knew. “the canals are ta move boats truw. they're a maze, basically, an only one leads t’the ships. keeps the more...fishy....visitors oot” he grinned, looking over his shoulder. a bit later the path got wider, and they stood in what looked like a crossroad of water. they'd have to cross a bridge, but a rather large merchants ship wanted to pass through as well, so they couldn't continue. the ship was made out of what looked like tar smeared wood, with large wing like structures mounted to the sides of the hull, that would keep the thing stable in the water but were folded up now so the ship could pass the reekie canals. On the front of the ship a huge beast head was carved, with piercing eyes made of green gemstones shimmering in the moonlight.
“a sferdrose ship” caelan spoke, a bit uneasy. while it was strictly forbidden to take keep conflict into the city, and the men of sferdrose where not currently at war with a’baveloch, because the latter no longer existed, they had never been allied and caelan was trained to be wary.
